Rene Archer wins 1st and 2nd from Messac 118 miles on the 02/06/12 with a 2year old Jan Aarden which was lightly raced as a yearling......
Rene also took 1st on the 19/05/12 from Carentan 62 miles with a Barker, his daughters were also 2nd in the same race where they were the only birds home on the day.....Well done to Rene and his daughters.

The N.E.H.U race from Melton Mowbray 21/4/2012 was won by Peel bros of South Shields, they took 1st club 1st fed, also taking 2nd and 4th club and 15 of the 25 birds clocked in the club......well done Peel brothers.

i got 4 last season,one similar to the grey one but we lost that one training,hope this one is still here at the end of the season.funny thing is they were all hens,not one cock,so again hopefully we get cocks this season

Jaap you do have some very nice birds and set up what i don't understand is how the results work( under performances ii have ask a member here to explain it to me but he has still to come back i'm only know one way and that is number of birds in a race position won and distance what i have noticed your performances do not show this so i would genuinely like to know maybe David you could explain just a little bit what it all means george

They race on a percentage system George.It's usually a one in four system, so if a thousand birds are entered then there are 250 prizes, then this is broke down into percentages on returns.If a fancier sends 20 pigeons if five are placed he has earned 25%, 10 placed 50%, 15 Placed 75%, 20 placed 100%. It's a much fairer system than ours although there are other percentages that are worked out for their overall performance percentages, top10, top 50, top 100, etc.

maybe David you could explain just a little bit what it all means george

i think im the last person to explain the system george, i barely understand our own in the uk........thankfully we have such members as gary and others who are well clued up on all matters pigeon who can explain everything you need to know, i see gary has kindly already done so.
